It's been a tough year for electronic music. We just lost another pioneer, folks. The father of MIDI, Prophet 5, Wavestation, and too many innovations to mention here... Goodbye, Dave Smith. You will not be forgotten...
During his long and fruitful artistic career, Ryuichi Sakamoto collaborated with fellow artists in creating several memorable works that continue to inspire and resonate with us.

Humanity has coexisted with forests.
Where forests have collapsed,
civilizations have perished.
Now, forests are collapsing all over the world.
Is this not a warning of the demise of human civilization?
Let’s do what we can and plant so
-Ryuichi Sakamoto
"What if everyone who loves Ryuichi Sakamoto planted a tree in his honor, to show him our love and gratitude."
- Yuka C. Honda
Following Ryuichi’s passing and in response to Yuka’s message above, Ryuichi’s family and estate launched “TREES FOR SAKAMOTO”.

If you mean sounds that aren’t in the album, I have to say the sound of rain.
Also, when it’s a windy day, my collection of windchimes, bells, and pieces of pottery that are hanging by my windowsill ring out and that makes me happy.
